It is a known fact that college students always have their phones glued to their hands. We use our phones to help us do homework, to help us procrastinate and to help us avoid eye contact with unwanted people. So, it is safe to say that our phones make our lives ten-times easier. We appreciate our phones and the hundreds of apps we have on them almost as much as we appreciate a good home-cooked meal on a well needed break. Here are the apps that every college student should have on their phone.
1. Snapchat
Your phone just isn't complete if you don't have Snapchat. It's the easiest way to communicate with your friends and to brighten their day by sending them an ugly picture of you or a picture of you as a dog.
2. Instagram
Instagram is a pretty obvious one. How else would you prove to the people from your high school that you're having an amazing time in college?
3. Venmo
Need to pay your friends back for that time they ordered food for you? Forgot your wallet at the mall so your friend had to spot you? Venmo's got your back.
4. Find My iPhone
Find My iPhone lets you track your phone when you can't find it so if you have the app and lose your phone at a random frat party, you know you'll be OK.
5. GroupMe
If you hate being bombarded with hundreds of iMessages, GroupMe is the app for you. It's organized, allows you to "like" other people's messages, and best of all, you can send GIFs.
6. 1010
Needless to say, 1010 is the most addicting game in the App Store. Whenever you need to procrastinate writing your paper or studying for your exam, you know which app is there for you.
7. YikYak
YikYak is the best app for letting you know what weird things are happening at your school. If a friend heard some juicy gossip about that hot upperclassmen, she most likely found out from YikYak.
8. Shazam
When you hear a killer new song at a frat party, but don't know what it's called, don't worry, Shazam is there to save the day.
9. Room for Thought
Room for Thought makes you take a picture at a random time each day so when you're feeling nostalgic just open the app and see the collage of your weirdest memories.
10. Domino's Pizza
If you don't have a Domino's Pizza account by now, then you're probably doing something wrong. What's better than an app that brings pizza right to your dorm?
